Jim, I feel like I am talking to a brick wall. We waste at least 50% of the energy consumed in this country in ways that do not improve the quality of our lives. You seem unable to get away from the idea of sacrifice. Lucky you were born in a civilized society. Scumbria

sports.yahoo.com Dead zone — According to an American Rivers press release, the Clinton Administration left a long-term plan to remedy the expanding "dead zone" in the Gulf of Mexico. The dead zone no longer supports life as a result of pollution that has caused low levels of dissolved oxygen. The condition, called "hypoxia", occurs when too many nutrients like phosphorous and nitrogen enter the ocean, causing excessive algae growth. As the algae die and decompose, dissolved oxygen levels plunge. The plan, released by the EPA in January, calls for reduction of the dead zone through voluntary decrease of polluted runoff, water quality monitoring and public education.

I think this is the java version. If not, hit it. Look at the rate of increase. Now we must tell these developing countries not to consume. They say...what about you? Jim, The average consumption per person of the developed nations is far greater than the average in the developing nations. And the biggest piglet of them all is the US. Our appetite is voracious and one of our biggest problem is trying figure out what to do with the leftover PCs, cars, vacuum cleaners, washers, toys, etc. ted
